  <DIV><BR></DIV>IF you have a cancel confirm, you are out of the trade.&nbsp; 
  Ask for the time stamp on the trade and then compare it with the time stamp on 
  the cancel confirm.&nbsp; One way or the other, you are entitled to an out or 
  an adjustment.&nbsp; If you received the cancel confirm before the trade 
  confirmation, it is the brokers problem, not yours.&nbsp; I hope that this 
  wasn't electronic and that you have a record of each event and the times that 
  they occurred.&nbsp; Proof is what it takes.&nbsp; Somehow, proof seems to 
  disappear in electronic trades when it is to the brokers advantage.&nbsp; good 
  luck.&nbsp; Ira <BR>&nbsp;

    <FONT face=Arial><FONT size=-1>Had a trade go wrong and wonder if I should 
    do anything. I placed a limit buy&nbsp; for 138050 on the emini s&amp;p when 
    the market was at 138100 (to try to get a good fill) at 850:45 AM. Then 
    cancelled the order at 851:04 AM and got a cancel confirmation. I checked 
    numerous times for fills and it showed none for 10 minutes. Then they showed 
    me as filled when the market was trading 137450, about 10 minutes later. I 
    then immediately marketed out at 137250. I have never lost more than 2.5 pts 
    on a trade, this was minus 8. The 2 issues for me are a) I was given a 
    cancel confirmation and b) they did not report the fill for ten minutes. On 
    top of that I usually reverse off of the pivot line which was 1380, so I 
    would of sold 2 at 1379, meaning i would of lost 1.5 on one trade but been 
    short at 1379 on a market that went down to 1349. My broker said I should of 
    known I was filled. Sould I be upset about this, any 
    ideas?</FONT></FONT>&nbsp;<FONT face=Arial>SMC</FONT>
